Contrary to popular belief, since the very beginning of Lady Gaga‘s career Laurieann Gibson has been at the helm as Gaga’s chief Creative Director and Choreographer.
As Creative Director it was Gibson’s job to bring the religion-obssessed Pop Star’s outlandish ideas to life in the form of elaborate stage shows, performances, and music videos.
Whether it be Gaga’s metaphorical death at 2009’s VMA‘s performing ‘Paparazzi’ or her blatant mock of Christianity in the ‘Judas’ video, Gibson was always a willing accomplice. However, after Miss Boom Kack’s alleged firing, the famed choreographer is singing a new tune set to the lyrics of “Gaga became too dark and twisted.”
Hear the tea Gibson spilled to ‘Entertainment Tonight (Canada)’ after the jump and sound-off below.
Of the duo’s professional split she says: “No judgment, but [working with Gaga] just got a little dark for me, creatively. I think it just reached the point where I wanted to keep the brand that I had helped build a little purer and still accessing the kids, and it was fun for me. But gets difficult when it gets a little dark and heavy.”
On the one hand, judging from Lady Gaga’s religiously offensive antics and music videos it’s completely plausible for Gibson to feel the way says. While there should be a strict separation between one’s personal and professional life, when one’s professional choices conflicts with one’s personal morals or beliefs it’s clearly time for a change.
On the other hand, Gibson was just involved in thee most sacrilegious display of blasphemy in the history of recorded music when she signed on to produce Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Roman Holiday’ performance for the Grammys. With that being said it’s unclear if her motives to explain the reason behind her fallout with Gaga is sincere, or yet another vapid publicity stunt to garner attention. After all, she did learned from the best Stunt Queen in all the land.
When you look back on Gaga’s image and sound when she first came out, and look at her now, YES!
I believe this Laurieann person! She was the creative whatever she was and then it’s like Gaga just threw her under the bus.
Didn’t Laurie Ann arrange that Grammy mess for Nikki Minaj?
If that’s the case she clearly has no issues or respect with religion.
“or her blatant mock of Christianity in the ‘Judas’ video…”
TGJ is starting to be the blog for dummies. First of all, there is nothing “dark” about Lady Gaga–nothing. The Cure is dark. The Smiths is dark. Gorgoroth is dark.
The creative relationship between Gaga and Laurieann–simple. Whatever else she is saying is simply ridiculous.
* blasts “Government Hooker” *
The creative relationship between Gaga and Laurieann didn’t work out–simple.
It’s more to it b/c that mess nicki did at the Grammys was satanic & disrespectful! I ain’t want no kids to see that!
Gaga is a person with no artistic skillz. At all.
She’s a pure hyped product sponsored from above. Being jew and spreading illuminati messaging is her insurance for fame.
Beyond me how ppl can fall and consume such s***. Media-manipulated dumb asses.
A good wise talented gentleman once said: ‘You don’t have to read it. And you don’t have to eat it. To buy is like to feed it’ – Tabloid Junkie
Yeah LaurieAnn is lying Gaga is not dark at all she’s a f****** gimmick and manufactured she is not real. Gaga is NOT who Stefani is, Gaga was made by the Haus of Gaga to become Famous.
Her Nicki Minaj performance was highly sacriligeous, besides being hideous and gaudy. Gaga has talent and to those idiots who call her an illuminati princess, she believes in God, blah blah blah…
“I think it just reached the point where I wanted to keep the brand that I had helped build a little purer and still accessing the kids, and it was fun for me.” — Lauriann
Lauri is saying Gagas has changed both musically and image wise. What people don’t know is Lauri has been working with Gaga since 2007. She worked a whole year with Gaga before she was introduced to the world. Lauri had a HUGE part in Gaga’s creative direction during The Fame and Fame Monster era. She was bubbly and easy going during the Fame, then she became a little darker, but still marketable towards kids during The Fame Monster. But once BTW came around, you can see her [Gaga] take a left turn music/style/performance wise. Lauri seems to miss the ‘old’ 2008-2010 Gaga.
Lauri didn’t feel any way about Nicki’s performance because Lauri didn’t mold Nicki. You have to understand Lauri pretty much molded Gaga into the person that she is today (stage presence and performance wise). Lauri had no part in Nicki’s development, so she can care less.
Judas is just a metaphor for the sins that hold us back from devoting our life to God, which all humans go through.. Y’all are too much.
Gaga is a pawn of the devil. The Baphomet should bring her to hell quickly 😛
the B**** got fired , what do u think she will come up with to save her dignity ?!
B**** you got fired , you are NOT good enough !
and nothing is offensive in ” BTW” the album. the whole era is simply not for the STUPID and Superficial creatures. and this applies to MOST of the ppl who visit DUMB blogs like TGJ.
and that B**** talk about ” gaga become too dark” now in 2012 ?! where were your ass when GAGA did the music video for ” BAD romance” ?!
oh well , your ass was counting $$$$ and didn’t care about kids , birds and trees.
B**** , U got FIRED ! and gaga must have a ball by NOW 😆
She has a good creative mind, but many artists it won’t work for.
I watched the Oprah interview with Gaga and Gaga said there is a creative process that she goes through that worries her parents. She refers to it as trying to find “the door”. SO Gaga does get a lil wacky and dark when she’s trying to create. It may be great to see the finished product but getting there may be “dark”!
That doesn’t make much sense.
“Marry the night” is not any darker than “Paparazzi” or other s*** she’d done before, in terms of video content and performances.
And yeah, click to Nicki Minaj performance… LMAO
I like Laurieann Gibson. So many ppl have said LG should have HUMBLED herself and been more submissive to the will of Gaga and she would still be working for her. Interesting how certain ppl must always be HUMBLE, CRAWL, & BEG, or appear SUSPICIOUS, ANGRY & ARROGANT in the eyes of some ppl!
Laurieann is very talented and is the force behind Gaga’s success thus far. It’s funny how quickly these fools can turn on the ppl who helped put them on or helped elevate their name in the industry, be it Gaga against Laurieann or that punk Dio-BLOW against Chris Brown!
I look forward to see LG’s next move!
….@SAM why didn’t you also print what DIo-BLOW had to say about M.I.A.?
Devilish? That’s irrelevant. She just said that GaGa’s theatrics, gimmicks and even her moves got a little too intense for her, that’s all. There’s nothing devilish about getting a little darker creatively… Besides,
” Gibson was just involved in thee most sacrilegious display of blasphemy in the history of recorded music when she signed on to produce Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Roman Holiday’ performance for the Grammys ”
Are you joking?
My thoughts: If I come to this site one more time and have some random video hidden somewhere on the page blaring through my speakers, a video I did not open or want to hear – I’m deleting this site clean off my bookmarks.
Wow. Sad thing is I felt the same way. I congratulate GaGa with all her success, but I liked the “Poker Face” & “Love Game” Lady GaGa. She was original & genuine, which she still is but now I feel like she’s doing too much to stand out. Just when I considered myself one of her “Little Monsters,” she start doing crazy s*** & had me reconsidering.
Lady Caca is not creative. She copies and pastes things from Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Roisin Murphy, Grace Jones, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Ayumi Hamasaki who did the bleeding performance a decade before Gaga, the Spice Girls, Britney Spears, etc.
Oprah is a desperate person who seems to be going senile and who kissed Lady Reductive’s b*** throughout the entire interview for the only sake of trying to save her OWN network, which is apparently kind of a failure at the moment.
Lady Caca will fool all the ignorants and f*cktards of the world = pathetic monsters. But she will not fool the rest of the population.
Lady Caca is a pure lunatic and even her parents know this!!! Complete delusional wannabe and clown, it amazes me how this Lady Caca person has fans to begin with. Unbelievable.
Laurieann didn’t say ANYTHING in this quote about religion. “DarK” does not necessarily equate to religious blasphemy. That idea is pure interpretive speculation on this bloggers part. The way I interpreted Laurieann’s remarks is that Gaga’s image/tone became too “dark” and serious. She (Gaga) definitely takes herself way more seriously than she use to these days and through out the BTW era. She forgot how to be fun and poke fun at herself the way she use to. She went from wearing flamboyant costumes that were interesting, whimsical and sometimes a bit silly (in a good way) to high fashion monstrosities that try way too hard and lacked in the tongue-in-cheek quality that she use to have. Her BTW music video was so over the top trying to be “deep” and “darK” that it missed the mark about the message the song was trying to convey. Her “Judas” video again was her trying to come off “deep” and was suppose to “shock” with its religious imagery but just came off as big budget high-school production of Jesus Christ Superstar. Her “Marry The Night” clip again took itself way too seriously and tried so hard to come off as a cerebral but in the end looked like a ridiculous “b” grade foreign film. I’m glad she’s hiding out for a while to recharge her creative juices and hopefully come back with something a little less “lofty”. She’s not that good at being “dark” and “deep”… I hope she just goes back to being fun.

illuminati
i still cant belive, people support someone who is so openly anti-christian and she has still fans.
people keep believing the world popped out of nowhere but dont cry when god wont let u in heaven for supporting this.
Laurieann is a witch who has basically programmed Gaga into the witch she is today. They are both satanists, and before her gimmicks become sacrilegious and dark they were overtly sexual and very raunchy. And children were targeted. She just went from one extreme to another and Ms. Kat Boom played a big part in both the sexual and the demonic (puppet pulling strings). She is faking on this interview and using it for publicity so that people know she’s behind all this demonic choreography and satanic themes. She’s a witch working her magic. She’s probably on this blog posting, these people are insecure an care so much what people think of them so they hop on the blogs reading away. IT IS WHAT IT IS.
Well if she is turned dark i like this Gaga.
Well lil miss BOOMKACK is officially a product of contradiction..Gaga is VERY DEMONIC…and so is Nicki Minaj’s entire BRAND. Including her Grammy performance…
She acts as though she made her. She helped her.
She’s funny. Not in a good way.
Lady Gaga created herself! Look back at the old videos in 2005 …. her and Lady Starlight singing in the bars!!…. Laurieann Gibson was put up with because Gaga kept her on even after the fact ,she wasn’t developing anything……Finally let her go.. Gibson is so jealous of Gaga ,you can see it in every interview……You need to read the New York Times interview where Gaga says everything……EVERYTHING I DO ..I’m in charge …No one ‘f***ing created me…..
